Body language expert breaks down Harris’ behaviour
Analysing Harris’ demeanour during the interview, body language expert Susan Constantine told Fox News that the vice president was “not confident in what she’s saying.” The interview came after Harris was accused of shying away from interviews since earning the Democratic nomination.

“When I look at her overall demeanour, she does not carry the confidence or the presidential appearance in her demeanour to command in her position,” Constantine said, adding, “So for everything that I saw last night, she definitely needs to make some tweaks into her body language to appear more confident.”
The expert went on to highlight that the fact Harris was “looking down a lot removes a lot of the fluidity and the authenticity.” “When she struggles, you start to see a lot of the head bobbling. You know, the head bobbling is ‘what part of the file in my subconscious am I going to pull out? Which ones are my answers?’” Constantine said.
“She couldn’t come up with a crystal clear answer, and that’s why she tends to bobble,” she continued before explaining that her nods were “another signal that she’s not really… prepared.” “She doesn’t really have confidence in her own answers,” Constantine added.
The body language pro also highlighted that Harris continuously kept breaking her gaze, which was a “sign of deflection.” “So when you’re removing an eye gaze, not making good eye contact, it’s just showing me that she’s not confident in what she’s saying,” she explained.
